It is totally pointless. Users should just learn to explicitly pass the app and playpath and not rely on the builtin parser at all. In fact, I've a mind to revert all of the recent parsing patches back to my last version. If your particular usage fails to parse correctly, then you should manually retry.
I see your point, the endless slash parsing should go away I agree. However with the "mp3:" "mp4:" we have a clear indicator of the start of the playpath, so why not use it?
I say use the "mp3:" "mp4:" as the start of the playpath if found, otherwise assume "app" stops at first slash. I can write patch for this if agreeable.
It sounds OK at first, but... We really have no idea what other valid filetypes may show up there. I'm tempted to try "/[any-3-or-4-chars]:" as the pattern instead. Then again, perhaps mp3/mp4 is enough. At this point I think Adobe has stopped investing in RTMP and gone on to other protocols. Dunno.
